A Guide to modifying 3-piece wheels (BBS E88)

The BBS E88 is a legendary wheel and looks even better once a double step kit is fitted instead. But... most folks out there don't have too much of an idea how to step-up a wheel or more so how by using step lips effects the overall diameter and look.
Hopefully this video answer some of those questions.

Now there comes the video I've been waiting for! Explains all I needed to know in a visual and clear manner, thanks a bunch! One might argue the title is slightly misleading as the video covers more than advertised (ie stepping up, stepping down and keeping the stock diameter while modifying the wheel). Maybe "Guide to modifying 3-piece wheels" is more to the point. Just a new subscriber trying to help :)

Thanks for the comment! Really appreciate the thoughts on the title! I'll update it now!

@@rimscarnated Glad I could help! For what it's worth, you would set yourself off from the competition if you covered how to seriously (read "safely") convert a one-piece wheel to a three-piece one, ie strengthening the wheel face after it's been cut and ideally performing a Finite Element Analysis. Hope this helps, although I know it would be more more work for you!

@@remifassol4198 This is something that we simply don't recommend as it's never safe enough to do really. As the issue is that your cutting up wheels that have been used for many years and then the cost of actual testing far exceeds the cost of a reproduction forged set which are much stronger and better overall.

@@rimscarnatedThat's a very good point, turns out you also mentioned this in the 300 ZX wheels video, which I hadn't properly paid attention to when I first watched it! Just tossing ideas around here (again!), but releasing a video about why converting a wheel to 3-piece is a bad idea may bring more traffic to your channel.

If you’ve “remade” the centers.. then how is that a BBS E88 😂
